Fairford Leys provides housing from single-bedroom starter homes to five-bedroom detached properties, which has ensured that its population is representative of all life stages, from young singles, through young and growing families, to the retired and the elderly. The hope that people would want to stay in Fairford Leys, moving house within the village as their family needs change, is already being realised. Many residents work locally, while others commute, and those that are around during the day have found time to develop such initiatives as the Mother and Toddler Group and the Friendship Club, which are playing a significant role in helping to build a sense of community. Fairford Leys has its own parish council (Coldharbour Parish), primary school, doctor's surgery and neighbouring pharmacy, veterinary practice, Women's Institute (WI), ecumenical church, and a community centre (known as the Fairford Leys Centre), which hosts a wide variety of events and activities, including dance classes, badminton, karate, children's parties, wedding receptions, corporate functions and council meetings.
